If you want to shut down a service instance because it is not needed, for example, or because you want to run it on a different node, you can shut the service down without disturbing the work of end users. You can also shut it down immediately.
Procedure
-
Log in to
Spotfire Server and click
Nodes & Services.
-
On the "Your network" page, under
Select a view, select
Nodes.
-
In the left pane, expand the entries under the node and select the service instance that you want to shut down.
-
In the right pane, click
Shut down and then do one of the following:
- If you want the instance to continue running for a while, click
Schedule and then enter the number of hours and minutes you want
Spotfire Server to wait before shutting it down.
Note: Before the shutdown, any users on that service instance are notified that the instance will be shutting down; this gives them time to save their work. The instance is then shut down when the user or users close the analysis, or at the scheduled time, whichever is earlier. If no one is using the instance, the instance is shut down immediately.
- If you want the instance to shut down immediately, whether or not it is being used, click
Immediately.
Note: End users who are on this service instance will lose any unsaved work.
